Sarah Palin, and her daughter Bristol, have rightly slammed the mainstream media for bashing the Duggars as hypocrites while continuing to laud Lena Dunham, the celebrity who sexually molested her own sister.

The following article written by Bill Donohue was published by Newsmax on June 3, 2015. Only a cruel person would wish Bruce Jenner ill-will now that he has morphed into Caitlyn Jenner.

Pope Francis did not comment on Bruce Jenner’s transformation, but we are not without clues as to what he may have thought.

Recently St. Paul and Minneapolis Archbishop John Nienstedt announced that he was resigning from his position. Both the New York Times and AP reported that Archbishop Nienstedt protected a pedophile priest, Curtis Wehmeyer.

Many celebrities will do anything to show how utterly welcoming they are of men and women who are in rebellion against their own nature—they applaud every time someone gets Jennerized. But when it comes to Catholics, that's a different story. Indeed, they are obliged to be bigoted. During the Critics' Choice Television Awards on A&E that [...]
